At this point of this patch it is unclear how this change is
relevant. I'll read on without complaining but with puzzlement.

This is not a new problem, but "q" in the comment should be
"q->item"; my bad.

This is not a new problem, and I do admit that I wrote the original
at 1daa09d9 (make the previous optimization work also on
path-limited rev-list --bisect, 2007-03-23), but this makes me
wonder why counted++ is not done for p that is treesame.
... goes and looks ...
Ahh, the original while loop was counting upto "nr", which is
different from total. When the traversal is pathspec limited, I
counted in the original (and probably in 'master' branch before your
series) the number of tree-changing commits in 'nr' which can be
smaller than 'total'. That is why skipping counted++ on a treesame
commit was the correct thing to do.
Is it possible that you did not test --bisect-all with pathspec? I
have a suspicion that the above loop would not terminate because of
this change. If that is the case, either "make total global and get
rid of nr" needs to be fixed, or (probably better) move counted++
out of this if statement. At this point, counted indicates "how
many commits out of 'total' we have computed weight for?", so the
latter would make more sense to me, even though either is OK.
The "priming the well" step for the "no interesting parent--set
weight to either 0 or 1" also needs to adjust counted++, I suspect.

It is somewhat curious why this, after finding the desired commit as
p->item, does not return it. If it is already known that we have
half-way one, can't we return it immediately (and when we fall
through without finding exactly the half-way one, we signal the
caller that it needs best_bisection() among the list by returning a
NULL or something?
But probably that is optimizing it prematurely. I dunno.
